Which book to read first?

Hamid’s five books are about foundations of life, two written as thrillers and three as scholarly dialogue. Which book to read first? The thrillers are entertaining starts. The Unexpected Unseen is action-packed introducing the “earth’s two versions” using the knowledge of ancients and modern science. Science calls these two versions interglacial and glacial earth. To the ancients they are the blue-skied earth and the canopied earth. The earth’s two versions and the transition between the two are foundational aspects of human life. Following The Unexpected Unseen is The First Rung which covers the ancient and scientific knowledge of earth’s two versions in scholarly, non-fiction style.

Another starting point can be Here Comes the Watchman, an action-packed novel that addresses the foundational issues of managing force, resources, and knowledge by individuals and societies. The Sucker Punch of Sharing addresses the same foundational issues of force, resources and knowledge in scholarly, non-fiction style.

Hamid loves the thrillers but his favorite starting point is The Choice Maker as it reveals a divine being, thousands of years ago, providing humanity with the recipe for managing force, resources, and knowledge, especially in the most difficult time of transition between the earth’s two versions.
